Is Sicko Worth Seeing Twice?
I saw it on Tuesday but wouldn't mind seeing it again...

1. I saw it on Wednesday (cool and rainy 4th of July)
and if friends wanted to see it, I would gladly go again. Hell, I might even drag a few to see it, and even pay for them.

3. I Was Discussing The Movie With This Wing Nut At A Neutral Site...
He was slamming it without seeing it as is typical... I told him if he could figure out the logistics I would pay for him and his wife to see it...

Those were real people who got screwed...

2. if you haven't done this already, try going when the theater is full ...
A friend and I went the afternoon it opened (I usually do this if I don't feel like dealing with a massive crowd later that evening) -- surprisingly good turnout for the early show, but not a packed house, so I could concentrate on the movie. A couple of days later I went during a busier time -- the audience laughed and groaned at similar places, but things were much louder and rowdier. Because I'd seen it already I was able to enjoy that "interactive" part of the show (e.g. the elderly couple in front of me exclaiming "Crook!" when Nixon showed up onscreen).

4. I was thinking about going again
Most films I really like I will watch at least 2x.

So no, you're not alone.

5. I went last night
I would also like to see it again. I saw it at a suburban theater, but would like to see it at the independent theater in the city just to compare the two audiences.
There certainly was a great deal of tears shed, as I heard a lot of sniffling. I made the mistake of not taking my purse, and this was not a movie to watch without tissues.
